Zotye Cloud 100plus is prone to power consumption issues. Here are some relevant introductions about car maintenance: 1. First maintenance: Some manufacturers will set the first maintenance based on time or mileage. The exact time for the first maintenance should be referred to the vehicle user manual or warranty manual. The first maintenance is very important and free, so be sure to remember to do it to avoid missing it and affecting the car's three-guarantee issues. 2. Maintenance items: The main maintenance items for a car include replacing engine oil, oil filter, transmission oil, spark plugs, air conditioning filter, air filter, brake fluid, etc. However, not all items need to be replaced every time, as it depends on their service life. In addition, maintenance also involves the inspection and maintenance of dozens of items across multiple systems, including the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires.

I've been driving the Zotye Yun 100 Plus for several years, and the most common issue is the rapid decline in battery range. Initially, it could run about 150 kilometers, but now it barely exceeds 100 kilometers, likely due to battery pack aging or management system failure. Once, the car suddenly lost power while driving, forcing me to stop on the roadside, which was quite frightening. There are also charging problems—it often doesn't charge fully or displays errors, which I found out was due to poor contact at the charging port. Additionally, the motor occasionally overheats, especially during long drives in summer. Interior components like the air conditioning knobs or screen buttons are prone to malfunction, such as buttons not popping back up or responding sluggishly. I recommend owners regularly check battery health and not wait until a breakdown to repair, as maintenance costs can be quite high.

From a technical perspective, let's discuss the common failure points of this vehicle. Battery issues are the most frequent, including rapid degradation and charging abnormalities, which may be related to loose internal connections or controller bugs. The motor is prone to overheating during operation, leading to noise or power loss. There are also electronic system failures, such as touchscreen freezes or Bluetooth disconnections, usually caused by software incompatibility. In terms of the body, door locks and wiper motors often malfunction due to insufficient structural robustness. For safety considerations, occasional brake response delays occur, requiring extra caution in rainy conditions. Overall, cost constraints in manufacturing result in less durable components. It is recommended to use genuine parts for key component replacements during maintenance to extend the vehicle's lifespan.

I use the Yun 100 Plus for commuting, and what I experience the most is constant minor issues. The central control screen often freezes or goes black, which is extremely annoying during navigation. The Bluetooth music keeps disconnecting and requires multiple reconnections. The air conditioning vents squeak, probably due to worn-out fan bearings. The battery drains too quickly; a full charge lasts less than 100 kilometers before the warning light comes on, severely affecting daily commutes. The headlights flicker occasionally, possibly due to a short circuit. While not life-threatening, these issues are quite mood-dampening. I suggest owners carry a power bank for emergencies. Repairs for these problems aren’t expensive, but frequent trips to the repair shop are time-consuming.
